10 team Yahoo Pro League, standard scoring. My record is 5-4 and I'm in 6th place well within range of the top 4 which are the playoff spots. My team has been bad and lucky to have the record I have right now because Megatron has been out, Matthews has been out, Marshall had a few bad games and a bye, prior to that Ball was horrible for me before I dropped him, Carolina D has been bad, Benjamin had been up and down, Ertz terrible, etc. But now I'm getting guys back like Megatron, Marshall, Matthews will be back soon, Peterson is very likely to be back soon, Josh Gordon will be back in a few games. Well I just traded:

 

Maclin and Ertz for Gronkowski and Smitty. Good trade? I feel I won't need Maclin with Gordon coming back and Megatron and Marshall coming back, even though he's been a stud and Gronk is a huge upgrade at TE. What do you think?

That's a hell of a trade. You strengthen your TE spot with a beast in Gronk and you have Gordon coming back and got Smith in the trade so Maclin isn't that bad of a loss. I think it was a damn good trade on your part.

 

I hope so. Helped him out a lot too, since Smitty was literally his best WR. Also had Gates so that's why I proposed. Only thing is I'm not sure I can trust Marshall in that train wreck in Chicago, Smitty has been bad and Gordon's still 2 weeks away. Atleast Megatron is finally back though. Gronk's on bye this week which hurts... My team looks like it should be really really good on paper but I have like the 4th least points in the league.

    • I think we pick it up and then someone else ends up emerging as the QB next year and we end up cutting him in year 5 and eating it.  That would be the most on brand thing to happen.
    • Evero has his faults, but even in that loss, the team only gave up 20 points. Your post gets to the heart of the matter. We are not a talented team on defense at this time. Some of our younger guys may develop w/more playing time, but for now we have no impact players at LB or EDGE. We could really use a ball-hawking S on the back end as well. We have exactly two players that have to be accounted for on every play, D. Brown, and J.Horn. Mike Jackson has been solid. The other starters would probably be backups on most the upper echelon NFL teams. We really can't expect this team to a Top 10 defense with such a lack of talent. All things considered I've been somewhat impressed with how much better they have played this year.   https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-points-per-game   https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-average-team-passer-rating We are in the top 15 in terms of points allowed per game (22.6) and top 12 in defensive passer rating (88.9). And, we are doing this without a formidable PASS RUSH. Even our rushing defense has improved. We are #16 in rushing yards allowed per game (116) compared to 179 per game last season. https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-rushing-yards-per-game I wouldn't cry if Evero moved on after the season, but his defense isn't the biggest worry for our team.
